The reaction mixture was heated at 70° C. for 2 hours and then cooled to room temperature. 5 mL of water was added slowly to quench the reaction and then the reaction was extracted with EtOAc (100 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine (50 mL), dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue on a silica gel column (0 to 40% EtOAc/hexanes) afforded trans-4-benzyl-5,5-difluorooctahydrocyclopenta[b][1,4]oxazine. MS ESI calc'd. for C14H17F2NO [M+H]+ 254. found 254.
